Launched on April 6th (and exhibiting thru to April 30th, 2012) is The Great Escape - featuring the works of Andrew Bell and Kelly Denato, on show at The Stranger Factory. The online preview of which is currently "live" and viewable via strangerfactory.com (as well all artwork is mirrored HERE on my FB-album). All inquiries must be emailed to: strangerfactorysales@gmail.com - with online purchase inquiries being accepted starting 12 Noon Pacific Standard Time (PST) on Monday, April 9th.

Am extremely interested seeing the 3-dimensional forms of Denato - with a focus on foxes, ribbons and strawberries, and of Andrew Bell's creations, taking yet again a huge step towards his hugely sympathetic creature creations, this time with a larger stroke of bleakness, it seems. And what I enjoy about these imagery, is that whatever happenstance is depicted in them, the characters seem less likely to be able to "escape" their trap/predicament, and imperfect-irony of "The Great Escape" rolls down the face of dreams silently, IMHO… Nevertheless swell imagery either way.

Dear designers, toy-makers and toy-customizers,If you have noticed for some time now, certain images posted on this blog is either darkened (when the image has a white background) or brightened (when the image is deemed too dark).

I need to let you folks know that they are actually automatically altered when they are uploaded and published on the blog, and are not deliberately treated in anyway by myself!Until a reason is given by Picasa or a resolution reached, I seek understanding and patience from everyone. Thank you.
